WE CANNOT FALL TO THE FEAR REPUBLICANS PROMOTE

Some people have shown more support for the Syrians immigrants than the French violence. This is my reply….

........ many, many people, me included, laid "wreaths" of support to the French on social media over the past few weeks. On Facebook, many changed their FB photos to replicate the French Flag in support of their troubles. But, we are a nation, born of immigrants. The little respect we still have in the world is due to our support of the downtrodden. 

Donald Trump falsely claims Obama wants to bring in "hundreds of thousands of Syrians.” FALSE. A recent Letter in the Star even repeated this lie. Obama asked for 10,000 beginning next year. Carefully vetted. Actually, it will take two to three years before they are able to enter the U.S. Remember what Ellis Island or the Statue of Liberty signify? 

The enemy always wants the opposing country to change their ethics and beliefs. It’d be a victory for ISIS if we did that. We must show the world that we are strong, and no person or terrorist organization is going to make America give up it's beliefs.


We live our life, let them live theirs. Our forefathers left fear and persecution behind in England. We can empathize with the French for what they went through.  Now, we can appreciate the Syrians as much as the Irish, Poles, Jews, Italians, Mexicans and all the OTHER ethnic groups who fled here to find freedom from fear. We cannot fall to fear.

VERY IMPORTANT! - trump successfully diverted attention all week with his false rhetoric, tweets and insults, defaming veterans, Puerto Ricans, widows of dead soldiers, a Black Congresswoman, and who knows how much more, while his new, "old friend," Mitch McConnell set his Mongol Army on American Citizens. trump is the beginning of the final chapter of the Republican effort to show, Democracy doesn't work. The Country doesn't work. To bring down the Whole Country and Stephen  Bannon STATED VERBALLY and in PRINT he wanted to do. Reduce the Federal Government to a small "caretaker" government, where the citizens MUST rely strictly on their own for survival, no matter the circumstances. NO ENTITLEMENTS of any source (MEDICARE and SOCIAL SECURITY ARE NOT ENTITLEMENTS.  BEWARE OF trump's TRICKS. Now you can see how they work.  > trump did his job. While he diverted the country with his insults and inane comments, lies and B.S., and the media assist...

Trump is now somehow a religious idol

Some religious fanatics have officially gone bonkers. The far right have been pushing a meme for several years now that the amoral creature, conman, egomaniac, and bad person in the WH “has been sent by God to be ‘a vessel for the purposes of the faithful’ in the role of King of the United States of America,” according to Katherine Stewart.  A firefighter picks up a Bible in a moment of revelation and automatically turns to Isaiah 45. Agent Orange is also number 45. Coincidence? I think so. This disclosure is because Cyrus in Isaiah 45, is “saved” and becomes Emperor of Babylon, freeing the Jews. These Christian Nationalists, no relation to the saner version of ages past, believe the adulterer, misogynist, oaf in the White House, who is encouraging them, will save humanity.  Tony Perkins, Ralph Drollinger and V.P Mike Pence support it, as well. Deport them.

WHERE IS THE RELIGION IN TRUMP? Point it out, please.

Millions of people still support Trump. Why? People with whom Trump has taken peace of mind, dignity, respect, pride, and more. He gave a 'tax cut.' That gave the average recipient a hundred dollars or so in their pockets. His friends got millions. However, due to these cuts, Medicare, medicine, local taxes (i.e., R.E. and property, sales, State Income) are increasing, making those tax-cuts void. In fact, the average middle-class citizen will net LESS after his cuts than before. It's all a DECEPTION.  In 2017, Trump earned $288 million. In 2018, $453+ million. How much more are you NETTING. He created potential trade wars, which will negatively affect produce producing states, then pushed significant cuts in Farm Subsidies. Farmers cannot find labor for harvests. Trump has: eliminated the Clean Air and Water Acts; cut public education funds, cut credits and increased tariffs related to ecology; cut MPG ratings; eliminated National parks. He eliminated middle-class workers...
